Don't let these lies drive immigration reform!
Ann Coulter

"Immigrants who come to this country instantly have illegitimate children."

Don't let this racism drive immigration reform."
Bill O'Reilly

"If we legalize immigrants who are here they get more on the welfare entitlement train."

Don't let this fear-mongering drive immigration reform!
Neil Cavuto

"Releasing immigrants from detention is dumb."


Don't let this absurdity drive immigration reform!

Don’t let anti-immigrant rhetoric drive the immigration debate. Nativist, racist and fear-mongering hate groups are working hard to drive their narrative on immigration. For years now, anti-immigrant groups have successfully infused their message into the national immigration debate. Influencing local politicians and national figures - with the same talking points: "More punishment", "Militarize the border", "Massive deportations", "More Enforcement." This has resulted in dangerous policies that have led to flagrant violation of human rights.

It is time we put basic immigrant, human rights back in the forefront of our national values and priorities! Let Congress and the President know that to reform immigration they must prioritize "Immigrant rights before enforcement."Add your name and message - make sure your voice is heard!

When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God. Leviticus 19:33,34 —Wife of a Guatemalan citizen who was deported

Occasionally, I’m reminded that the US doesn’t stand for human rights. The US hypocritically has violated many human rights, and sadly, very much still does. Please let’s change this. Children, families, communities deserve better. Stop the deportations. Stop separating families. Stop degrading human beings.

Then he said to them, “Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me. For it is the one who is least among you all who is the greatest.”

Rush L and Ann C sure don’t speak for me. Both are an embarrassment to me. Their dissemination of fear and hate is troglodytic. Dreadful people.

I can’t believe that this is even still an issue. What it comes down to is discrimination by and in the law. If at all possible, each of these people should be willing to provide a home or email address in order to be told what the rest of the (thinking) population feels. After all, if a person believes in his or her convictions enough to share them with the world, he or she should have no problem with opening up his or her home to possible negative outcomes stemming from said sharing. violence begets violence, whether it be a verbal, written, or physical assault; I personally support only the first two, and am willing to write and say what is necessary to keep such small-mindedness from spreading. People, hear me: discrimination of any kind is not in any context right.
